Sutton Helps London Cruise to 13-3 Win
The London Tigers soundly defeated the Hialeah Firecats, 13-3, at Firecats Ballpark. Danny Sutton let his bat do the talking. He was 2-3 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks, while scoring 3 and driving in 3 for London. Colin Esser got the win, improving to 4-7. He pitched 6 innings, giving up 3 hits and 2 runs, while striking out 6 and walking 3. Phil Ott finished the game for London and earned his 1st save.

Ryan Caird was 3 for 4 with 3 singles and was hit by a pitch for London. The 25-year old second baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the fourth. With no one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring single off Frank Howerton. It was his 25th hit of the season.

"Feels good to get the job done," Caird said after the game.

The second-place Tigers go to 63-54.
